The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3504 - 3499: Who Has More People?_1

Filled with profound indignation, the Ghost Ancestors immediately launched their assault, forming a cordon around the human cultivators with the intent to annihilate them swiftly.

Should this relentless onslaught continue, the human experts, while perhaps not facing total annihilation, were certainly poised to sustain devastating casualties.

"Have these Ghost Ancestors from the Netherworld truly lost their minds?"

dispatching eight Ghost Ancestors not to engage the powerhouses of other races, but exclusively to target the Human Race? This was an astonishing development.

It was highly irregular.

Throughout this preceding period, the Ghost Ancestors within the Netherworld had largely maintained a low profile, seldom initiating direct confrontations. Their primary objective was to bide their time until Yan emerged.

However, the current circumstances presented a starkly different scenario.

A contingent of Human Race experts found themselves in a strategic retreat, utterly incapable of mounting effective resistance.

At this critical juncture, a voice, imbued with a leisurely cadence, suddenly resonated through the air.

"Since all you esteemed Ghost Ancestor Daoist Friends have gone to such lengths to seek me out, and I am now present, why direct your aggression towards these venerable seniors of my race?" Yang Chen inquired with an air of calm and unburdened geniality.

Upon recognizing the origin of the voice, the assembled Ghost Ancestors instantly narrowed their gazes and declared with icy hostility, "It is you, Yang Chen!"

Yang Chen responded with a chuckle, "Esteemed Ghost Ancestor Daoist Friends, having expended such considerable effort to locate me, it would indeed be improper if I failed to present myself and acknowledge your presence, would it not?"

The Ghost Ancestors were, in truth, solely focused on Yang Chen.

The sight of Yang Chen ignited a fiery intensity in their eyes.

"Yang Chen, you dare to reveal yourself! Prepare to meet your demise!" One Ghost Ancestor took the vanguard, with the rest following suit. Without the slightest hesitation, they unleashed their combined might, converging upon Yang Chen in a sweeping offensive.

"Yang Chen, exercise extreme caution," Princess Wenqi voiced her concern, her tone laced with worry.

"First, let us eliminate Yang Chen."

"Be vigilant against the other Heavenly Extreme Realm experts."

"Fear not, these humans possess but a handful of formidable individuals; how could they possibly contend with us? Once we vanquish Yang Chen, these humans will be left with no recourse."

Witnessing the frenzied onslaught of the Ghost Ancestors, the gathered human experts were equally taken aback. Just how profound was the animosity and deep-seated hatred these Ghost Ancestors harbored towards Yang Chen?

Yet, the present situation was far from conducive to prolonging the engagement.

A collective of powerful individuals addressed Yang Chen, stating, "Young Master Yang Chen, this location is not conducive for an extended stay. Our numbers are insufficient to provide adequate support; we must effect a tactical withdrawal."

Under normal circumstances, Yang Chen would have readily heeded such counsel from these seasoned experts and made a swift departure.

However, at this moment, the adversaries before him presented themselves as abundant opportunities – how could he possibly relinquish such a chance so easily?

Yang Chen promptly declared, "Esteemed seniors, please set your minds at ease; the issue of insufficient support is not a concern."

"Yang Chen, you must be dreaming," asserted a Ghost Ancestor, launching the initial, full-force assault.

Yang Chen maintained an expression of absolute calm and composure. With a deliberate step, spacetime itself seemed to ripple, and he evaded the attack with effortless grace.

Observing the bewildered expressions of both the Ghost Ancestors and the human experts, who regarded Yang Chen as if he had lost his faculties, Yang Chen let out a lighthearted, unconcerned chuckle.

The eight Ghost Ancestors were confident in their perceived advantage over the beleaguered human forces, oblivious to the fact that the ones truly disadvantaged in terms of manpower were not the humans, but these very Ghost Ancestors who harbored such misplaced confidence.

With the exchange concluded, Yang Chen made a sweeping gesture with his sleeve, proclaiming, "Daoist Friends, make your appearance."

As his words faded, spectral figures materialized within the visual range of all present.

These were no ordinary spectral forms; at first glance, each possessed a cultivation level reaching the Heavenly Extreme Realm.

Furthermore, and most crucially, their sheer number – ten in all.

The simultaneous manifestation of ten Heavenly Extreme Realm soul bodies made it unequivocally clear to everyone that Yang Chen's pronouncements held absolute truth; not a single word had been uttered in jest!

At this juncture, the balance of power was starkly evident.

"How is this even conceivable?"

Every single Ghost Ancestor was utterly dumbfounded.

"Yang Chen has somehow subjugated those missing Ghost Ancestors! We know not by what sorcery, the audacity is infuriating!"

"Quickly, we must depart! This place is no longer tenable. Yang Chen now commands ten Heavenly Extreme Realm experts; we cannot possibly contend."

These Ghost Ancestors were not bereft of intelligence. Perceiving the unfavorable shift in the prevailing tide, they initiated an immediate and unhesitating retreat.

Witnessing the swift action of the Ghost Ancestors, Yang Chen let out a derisive sneer, "You seek to flee? It shall not be so effortless!"

Without any explicit command from Yang Chen, the formidable spectral entities, harboring a benevolent disposition towards him, instantaneously moved to intercept the escape routes of the fleeing Ghost Ancestors.

"Esteemed seniors and Daoist Friends, lend me your strength to apprehend these eight Ghost Ancestors. Upon their capture, we shall gain dominion over more than half of the Netherworld," Yang Chen declared with cold resolve.

Witnessing this spectacle, the assembled human experts were utterly astonished.

"So that's how it is. During that brief interval before we arrived, this Yang Chen fellow managed to purify so many Netherworld Ghost Ancestors."

"Hahaha, this is truly beyond belief." Among the onlookers was Dao Ancestor Ye Shan, and seeing this outcome, his heart swelled with joy and profound emotion.

Ten Ghost Ancestors—the sheer magnitude of that number was, in itself, mind-boggling.

"Hurry! Assist Brother Yang Chen in subduing these eight Ghost Ancestors. Once they are under control, he can convert them into his own loyal followers," Dao Ancestor Ye Shan urged.

While these Dao Ancestor experts didn't fully grasp the intricate details of the unfolding events, their immediate priority was to aid Yang Chen.

After all, Yang Chen's ten Heavenly Extreme Realm soul bodies had decisively secured the dominant position.

With an overwhelming numerical advantage, the eight Ghost Ancestors found themselves stripped of their former arrogance, completely overwhelmed by Yang Chen's potent techniques.

As for the human experts, they fought with every ounce of their being, undeterred even by severe injuries.

The arrival of a few more Heavenly Extreme Realm Dao Ancestors further intensified the dire predicament faced by the Ghost Ancestor contingent.

"Remember, we must take them alive!" Dao Ancestor Ye Shan, keenly aware of the established protocols, reminded the gathered experts.

In a swift coordinated assault, the group of experts unleashed their power, utterly overwhelming the Ghost Ancestors.

Yang Chen observed calmly, the entire situation within the Netherworld now completely under his command.

The arduous efforts of Yan and his cohorts crumbled entirely beneath his mastery.

By controlling eighteen Ghost Ancestors, he had indeed gained dominion over the majority of the Netherworld. This was largely due to the fact that numerous Netherworld Ghost Ancestors had already been eliminated by formidable beings from the alien tribes, leaving the remaining strongholds firmly in his grasp!

Of the eight Ghost Ancestors still resisting, two quickly succumbed. Yang Chen seized every fleeting opportunity, employing his space-time seal to infiltrate their defenses.

With two more sealed, the third, fourth, and so on inevitably followed. The eight Ghost Ancestors were completely subdued and brought directly to Yang Chen's vicinity.

Yang Chen smiled warmly and declared, "Thank you for your strenuous efforts, Daoist Friends and Seniors. In the next phase, I shall commence the Purification Method. Your sole responsibility is to provide me with protective vigilance."
